for Rand McNally and Company
Biography"Rand McNally is an American technology and publishing company that provides mapping, software and hardware for the consumer electronics, commercial transportation and education markets. The company is headquartered in Chicago, with a distribution center in Richmond, Kentucky. In 1856, William H. Rand opened a printing shop in Chicago and two years later hired a newly arrived Irish immigrant, Andrew McNally, to work in his shop. In 1868, the two men, along with Rand's nephew George Amos Poole, established Rand McNally & Co. and bought the [Chicago] Tribune's printing business. In late September 2018, Rand McNally moved its headquarters back to Chicago. After more than 60 years in suburban Skokie, Ill., the company returned to Chicago, setting up shop on West Bryn Mawr Avenue." -- Wikipedia
